Wonderful relaxing evening at the end of a long trave day. The captain and her crew were just awesome. Beautiful views from the water. It’s a must if you’re in Traverse City.

The staff was friendly and efficient. The tour was sold out so they made extra space for groups who wanted to be together. Jack, the Captain walked around and greeted everyone. Very pleasant experience.

We had a great time! We were celebrating my bachelorette; the captain let us drive the boat, gave me a free drink ticket and a round of champagne for all of us. The hospitality was amazing!

We enjoyed the beautiful views — got great sunset photos. The crew was friendly, and the calming trip was just what we needed at the close of a busy day.
